At Compassion International, we believe that every child deserves a chance to thrive, no matter their circumstances.
So we’re excited to unveil Compassion Causes — a new fundraising platform designed to revolutionize the way you can release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. Building on the foundation of Compassion International’s decades-long mission, Compassion Causes empowers supporters and church partners to learn about and meet urgent needs faster and with greater impact.
A Bridge for Change
Compassion Causes isn’t just a website — it’s a bridge connecting trusted church partners with supporters who are passionate about making a difference. This initiative enables church partners to post specific needs, provide real-time updates and receive funds within a week of reaching their fundraising goals.
Through this new giving opportunity, churches are empowered to address urgent needs and innovative dreams affecting children in their communities, like providing:
- Access to Clean Water: Installing localized purification systems to provide safe drinking water.
- Education for All: Building new classrooms, training teachers and ensuring every child has the chance to learn.
- Emergency Relief: Delivering food, shelter and emotional support in times of crisis.
With Compassion Causes, supporters can be closely connected with the impact of their generosity through real stories, photos and updates from communities.
Why We Built Compassion Causes
Compassion Causes was created in response to years of listening — to our supporters, church partners and global family. The message was clear. Donors want flexible giving options. Church partners need faster access to funds. And everyone wants to make a real difference. This platform is designed to meet those needs, offering another way to live out our mission.
The Journey Ahead
This platform is launching with 50 church partners across multiple countries, with a goal of growing to 200 partners by July 2025. And while Compassion Causes currently accepts U.S. donations, soon anyone, anywhere, will be able to give. Best of all, 90% of every donation goes directly to the cause, ensuring maximum impact for the communities we serve.
“Compassion Causes reinforces Compassion International’s mission to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name by providing a closer, more personal connection between supporters and the children and communities they support,” says Robert Hawkins, chief marketing officer. “Ultimately, we want to provide opportunities to our supporters to address the many aspects of poverty and make a positive, tangible, and eternal difference in the lives of children. We want to inspire those who participate to join us in that incredibly powerful work.”
